I am an art student at Montana State University, currently studying to be an art teacher. I generally spend my time working long hours at my moderately unpleasant managerial job, sketching out comics about my moderately unpleasant managerial job, trying to figure out how to be a professional artist, enjoying a cold brew with my friends (well, I'm not gonna lie to you), and wasting as much time on reddit as is feasible while maintaining reasonable levels of productivity in the meantime. I also try to bury my nose in a good book as often as possible. This happens less frequently than I'd like.
Current Residence: Bozeman? More like BROZE-man!
Favourite style of art: Comics, illustration, sequential art. Things that have panels. Also the paintings of the Impressionists, the Renaissance and Baroque eras, as well as Japanese block prints (I'm lookin' at you, Hiroshige. Holla at your boy.).
Personal Quote: Rommel, you magnificent bastard, I read your book!
